Basics of Acute Postoperative Pain
Keywords:
General Anesthesia-Regional Anesthesia- Acute Post Operative Pain -Upper Abdominal Surgery.
Abstract
Acute pain is an important fear for most patients and influences their recovery and overall experience. Poorly treated, it could lead to undesirable effects and patient dissatisfaction. Hence, it is important to understand, assess and treat acute pain effectively. Pain management has been transferred from intraoperative into per operative period throughout the emergence of modern anesthesiology. Pain management in postoperative period is one of the most essential components of sufficient post-surgical patients care. The objective of this review is to define and demonstrate the risks and different sequelae of acute post operative pain.
